Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is the 45th and current president of the United States. Before entering politics, he was a businessman and television personality. Trump was born and raised in the New York City borough of Queens, and received a bachelor's degree in economics from the Wharton School. He took charge of his family's real-estate business in 1971, renamed it The Trump Organization, and expanded its operations from Queens and Brooklyn into Manhattan.
The company built or renovated skyscrapers, hotels, casinos, and golf courses. Trump later started various side ventures, mostly by licensing his name. He owned the Miss Universe and Miss USA beauty pageants from 1996 to 2015, and produced and hosted The Apprentice, a reality television show, from 2003 to 2015. Forbes estimates his net worth to be $3.1 billion.

Still, Succession star Jeremy Strong, who is uncannily locked-in here, plays Roy as a fairly obvious, leering queen. Roy talks tough, but clearly he’s enchanted by ambitious but unseasoned Donald, whom he takes underwing as a pupil in Machiavellian machination.First, Roy cements their bond by getting Donald a better outcome than anybody in the Trump Organization could have hoped for in their potentially business-ending civil rights violations case.
